One of Shakespeare’s most admired comedies, Twelfth Night makes use of every trick in the playwright’s book: cross-dressing, mistaken identity, trickery and debauchery, a love triangle, even a pirate—all with a disquietingly dark undercurrent. Under the artistic direction of Rob Pensalfini, and in a performance rich in live original music, the Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble brings this most complex of plays to life with the energy and clarity that have become the company’s trademarks.
